Troubledpopstar Britney Spears is planning to marry her paparazzo lover AdnanGhalib, and convert to his faith, Islam and move to Pakistan.

Britneyhas been telling pals how much she loves Ghalib, and that she is intenton tying the knot with him. She might take on a new Muslim name if thatwas the case. It is the usual practice for new converts to start a newlife with a new Muslim name.

Britneyhas even been threatening to fake her own death to start a new lifewith him in Pakistan. A close pal revealed that the troubled singerwants the ceremony to be conducted by a minister from the Church ofScientology, adding that her whole clan is in a state of shock. Britneyis said to have announced this last week on a beach in Mexico, whereshe fled by private jet with Ghalib.

Spearsis believed to be adamant on getting married to Ghalib, despite severalwarnings from her close friends and aides. She's been told it would bean act of insanity to marry this man. She says she's doing it and shedoesnt give a f**k what anyone thinks, sources said.

“We’re taking care of each other,” Britney said. “He’s the only one who understands me. It’s serious.”

Peoplealso question Adnan’s motives for getting involved with the troubledpopstar. Many reports have claimed that Adnan is only after Britney tosell photos of the fallen popstar in various stages of undress.

“Adnanwould make a careful show of putting down his camera to help her withbags or into a car,” a source said. “Over time she grew to trust him,and all the while he was giving her his card and even sending flowers.”

"Adnan'smother and father are very religious and go to the mosque every day."They are strict when it comes to their religion and would never accepta non-Muslim into the family, let alone a white girl. “He may reallyhave feelings for her”. “Adnan said they were talking about the futuretogether and had a spiritual bond.”

Britneydecided to wear the white lacy dress she wore to marry her, nowestranged husband, Kevin Federline to go shopping for cars last week.

“Theycame in to get an estimate for a new car for him” a car salesman said.“He drives a rental car now. … He was looking into the different leaseand purchase options for sport cars.”

Thesinger is also demanding a Scientology ceremony similar to that of TomCruise and Katie Holmes. She's not a member but is getting interestedin the whole thing. A Scientology spokesman said that the Church ofScientology would be happy to provide a minister to marry Britney andher third husband.

Spears has been previously married to childhood sweetheart Jason Alexander for 55 hours and then to rapper Kevin Federline.

Spears'behaviour has become more bizarre in recent weeks. She claimed she wastoo hot for clothes and refused to get dressed during a three-hourbathroom stand-off with police, it has been reported. Police insiderssaid Spears spent three hours in the master bathroom of her home withher youngest son Jayden James after refusing to return him toFederline. When she emerged, she was in her panties and when told tocover up she put on a see-through dress.

Thesource said she screamed "don't cover me up ... I'm hot" when policetried to get her to wear a jersey. She allegedly screamed atauthorities: "What are you doing in my house?" and "I don't need yourhelp".
